Search for 'Nine Eagles Bravo SX canopy', This canopy comes in four different color schemes. I've mounted them on GW 9958 fixed pitch micro helis and think they look awesome in the air!

Here's one vendor who has all four colors in stock:

thank you much Roboheli. does it weigh the heli down much?

[RoboHeli]

Well, I fly mine on a FP heli, not a NanoCPX, and it definitely does make it feel heavier.

Here's my build thread for that project, btw:

Here are the weights.

Bravo SX fuselage: 5.45g
Nano CPX canopy: 1.53g

On a CP heli this small, you'll notice the weight, for sure. However, if you just fly it "scale" like, then I'm sure it'll be great!

Lunch time flyin' downtown. TX in one hand, taking photo with the cell in the other - try it!


This canopy is so super visible. And I discovered it works as a night rig too! The blue light really lights up the neon red canopy! Just need to add those tiny fish lure thingies you break making them glow for a good while, and attach that to the tail Some fluo or reflective mains would be great too (white not, not working well at that).

Not much to look at but I'm happy. Just need a nice looking canopy. Full lynx dfc head. Stretch kit. Hh bl. Airtime skids. The skids are the best upgrade.

That's pretty cool, kind of like a skeleton. What would you call that? Heli-Skeleton? Heli-Skeli? Heliton? Skelecopter?

[Varc]

I call it light-weight.

X-ray Nano, nice Varc!

I seem to have a terrible habit of not finding the right style for me.

My stock Ncpx.

I'll be making a comeback to the NCPX world after being down with two broken 3n1s. Just got a deal for a HH brushless modded and enough parts to revive my original NCPX.
The NCPS will hopefully be sold by then. Its same bird basically and the Safe gimmick wears off pretty quick.

Well here are the results of my parts box build of my Nano. I don't think there is one new part on there but a single servo.

Flies great.

Here is a pic of it and a couple of the rest of its family.

I found an Xtreme carbon fiber frame for $20 so I upgraded my side mount brushless ncpx. Spent all day working on it and soldered escape to the 3n1.

Came out pretty good and has tons of power and fixed all the tail blowout I was having.

Just found a Rakon frame for $14 and just ordered it. Gonna upgrade another one.

Here is my NCPX with all new mods installed this week. While ordering parts I decided to add the S2 to cart. Totally different flying style.
